Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-six seafloor foundation case histories are summarized in a continuing effort by NCEL to collect and evaluate foundation design foundation. Analysis of such histories for both successful and unsuccessful installations is of significant value in developing design guidelines for future seafloor structures. The installations analyzed included offshore towers, habitats, acoustic arrays, and numerous other submerged structures. The case histories have two distinctive features-- installations applied only light-to-moderate foundation bearing pressures. Because of the low bearing pressures, few major foundation problems were reported. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many potential seafloor structure locations consist of exposed rock or rock with a thin sediment cover. The design of a fixed, bottom-resting structure in such an environment poses a substantial problem because of the unevenness of the bearing surface and the usual accompanying strong currents. The report identifies probable locations of exposed and 'near-surface' seafloor rock; describes the rock surface microrelief or roughness and the rock mass integrity; and examines and criticizes rock foundation concepts.

Download or read book Emplacement of a Heavy Load Onto a Seafloor Foundation written by J. V. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emplacement of a heavy load by cable from the surface onto a seafloor foundation in the deep ocean to an accuracy of 1 foot may require a secondary positioning system to supplement the basic ship's stationkeeping. Four possible systems to effect this control are thrusters mounted just above the load, four-point moor with winches mounted above the load, single-point moor with one winch, one thruster, and a rudder, and hauldown system with load-mounted winch. Analysis of load/cable dynamics and operational considerations show that for emplacement of heavy loads (20 to 100 tons), thrusters of 1,000 to 2,000 pounds thrust would be needed, or submersible winches of 5,000-pound capability, or a hauldown winch of 10,000-pound capacity at a constant tension.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of its continuing program to stimulate superior basic research in the marine environment, the Office of Naval Research, Ocean Science and Technology Division, sponsored a series of closed seminar-workshops in 1972-1973. Each seminar focused upon one re search area of marine geology which is relatively new and in need of a critical evaluation and accelerated support. The subjects areas chosen for the seminars were: 1. natural gases in marine sediments and their mode of distribution, 2. nephelometry and the optical properties of ocean waters, 3. physical and engineering properties of deep-sea sediments, and 4. physics of sound in marine sediments. The objectives of each seminar-workshop were to bring into sharper focus the state-of-the-science within each subject area, to effect some degree of coordination among the investigators working within each of these areas and to provide the Ocean Science and Technology Division guidance for national program support. This volume.contains most of the papers presented at the semi nar on the physical and engineering properties of deep-sea sediments. The seminar was held at Airlie House, Airlie, Virginia on April 24- 27, 1973 and was organized and chaired by A. Inderbitzen. The at tendees were invited from among the leading investigators in this field from both the engineering and scientific disciplines. Each attendee was requested to prepare a paper within his area of spe ciality.
